Title: car still goes LIMP!
Post by: johntychwith on 06 March 2010, 12:57

i bought a 110k miles golf tdi 130 which has started to go into limp mode after a few miles of driving (fault code 17965-p1557-005463). i have had the turbo reconditioned checked the pipes and boost valves. STILL does it!! this problem is really getting me down !!! any ideas guys as im at the end of the tether!!! could it be a small pinhole in one of the hoses as ive been told? if so how do i find the hole that small in a hose ?? thanks a lot peeps!!!!!!

i had simmilar prob but different code 18075 along  it ended up being the wiring loom on one of my injectors, i had changed maf and got rid of egr b4 buying reader but as you hav the code and tried several things i can only add what happened to me.

it cost £130 for vw to change loom now all good

not sure if any help but i found any idea helped when it went into limp mode

just read your other thread and i pretty sure thiss comment or info wont helf if it was about the turbo.

good luck though
